I believe the answer is:

outcast

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one's excluded from team perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'inaccurate throw?' is the wordplay.
'inaccurate' becomes 'out' (eg a calculation might be 'out').
'throw?' becomes 'cast' ('cast' can be a synonym of 'throw').
'out'+'cast'='OUTCAST'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for outcast that I've seen before include "Pariah, one rejected by society" , "untouchable" , "Derelict" , "Social pariah or reject" , "Role of Ishmael" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
